Fiddy 217 AR problem

[ryanwayer]

Hello mates, what do you feel of the AR coated? Its out of box of noob factory version. Thanks !

 

[Mr. Pap]

Are you referring to the distortion problem? I have seen some people pointing that out...

 

[COLDI]

Ya distortion is def there.

But its still the best crystal to date...better than old EL

 

[Mr. Pap]

Coldi do you think an ar job will vanish the distortion?

 

[Bonesey]

No he's asking about the AR coating. Put it this way, as long as it's not blue like the older versions it's much much improved

 

[COLDI]

no I dont. Current AR modders still have a blue or green tint to them. This is the best it will get. But this is just my opinion with just seeing photos. Mine should be here next week

 

[ryanwayer]

I also feel the distortion problem ..hmm..Hard to tell, just the feeling is the crystal is not very clear..

 

[COLDI]

Guys they still arent perfect. But if you've been in the game long enough you will know we are light years ahead of wear we were and its SO SO much cheaper

Put one of these up against a old DSN...then you will know what I'm talking about.

Which part do you feel is still not perfect?

 

[alvinado]

the crystal still can be improved, but seriously, i think it is light years ahead of the past models that we have.

Arre you thinking that the crystal still reflects the light? -it is only supposed to be AR'ed on the inside, causing plenty of reflections on the outside.....

So if the AR coated on the outside crystal, can it be fixed the distortion problem? Thanks.

The distortion looks on pare with a lot of the 217 gen photos I've seen. I like the strap. Is that a gen vintage gold?

 

[Inushuk]

For reference here are 2 fiddy 2 differents generation
Tan leather strap is the latest one from Puretime Pam 127E Fiddy
Black leather strap is one year old from WBK Pam 127 Fiddy (old one)

So you can see the distortion and the different type of Crystal.

Foe me even the crystal with the "circle" you cn see on the latest one it is much better that the other one.

The 2 Fiddys

Thank you mate. Actually I'm satisfy about the anti reflection crystal. Just wondering if the gen. Also has the little dostortion like rep or not...
